ROOTLESS: The man who traded his soul. Meandering clouds, undulating-. Through a streamlined city. Hive of memories, packed tight-. Caught in a web. Scarred and shrivelled clouds, long unattended guests-. In your muddy lungs that stink. An enticing river, moaning-. Within your brain, a host of angels. Suddenly, One Day.
